The AndersonSports Ranking
of Tennis Success shows which men's tennis
players have had the most success over the past 365 days. This
ranking is markedly different from the ATP rankings in the following
ways:

this ranking rewards success in the Grand Slams
more than the ATP rankings do;

it rewards winning the Super 9s and the season-ending
Singles Championships more than the ATP rankings do;

it only minimally rewards success in lesser tourneys
(the ATP rankings emphasize these more);

it rewards success in Davis Cup play (the
ATP rankings do not)

In comparison to the ATP rankings, the AndersonSports
Ranking is refreshingly simple—and simplicity is a key to this ranking's
accuracy. Rather than throwing everything but the kitchen sink
into the mix, the AndersonSports Ranking purely rewards players for advancing
in tournaments—and the number of points that a player gets for advancing
reflects the importance that players and fans attach to that event.
